Cocaine Cowboys is the gritty documentation of the true story of the Columbian drug cartels that took over 1980’s Miami. These ruthless Columbian drug dealers ruled Miami with brutality unseen on American soil since the days of Al Capone in pre-prohibition Chicago. While these dangerous men brought drugs, crime, and corruption to Miami, they also made it into one of the popular and lucrative cities in the country. This film combines reenactments with interviews and testimonials from those actually involved in the Miami drug trade. This searing documentary puts into focus the system of capitalism and entrepreneurship at any cost and the ethical toll that it takes on a city, and moreover a society....
